Summary

Description This film illustrates how quickly the pleasures of the beach, lake, pool, and water sports can turn dangerous when safety practices are not followed, such as wearing a life jacket, maintaining a close eye on small children, and learning how to swim, preferably when young. The film notes that drowning is second only to auto accidents as a cause of fatal accidents. The film also urges that one never swim alone, nor overestimate stamina. A swimmer can overdo it and become weak. When boating, enter small crafts carefully and if you fall out, hang onto the boat rather than trying to swim to shore. Credits: Director, Howard Magwood ; script, Thomas L. Lisker ; executive producer, Hugh Cohn. Cast: Narrator, Raymond Burr. Gift; Suzanne White Junod, FDA; 20020709 ; Acc# 2002-17.
